What version of Eclipse and WTP are you using and what is the timeout
set to?

I switched from openjdk-6 to sun-java6-jdk and my problem was fixed. Also there was a trouble for tomcat to bind the port, but "sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.bindv6only=0" solved the issue.]]>n0weak 2010-04-12T15:30:57-00:00Re: Eclipse 3.5: Tomcat server was unable to start..https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/166048/526709/#msg_526709

I'm glad you found a workaround. It may be that that openjdk-6 runtime
is implemented in a way that doesn't work well with how the WTP Tomcat
support pings the server. I will give openjdk-6 a try sometime, just to
see the nature of the issue. I don't know if it will be practical to do
something about it.
